You can also see in this graph that multiple data series can be distinguished from one another on the same graph by using different coloured points. Here an analysis was done on Trump’s tweets to see whether they got more retweets, replies or likes, and also have his tweet posts data compared to Obama’s: A good example of this is from FiveThiryEight’s article on The Worst Tweeter In Politics Isn’t Trump.

Ternary Graphs can also visualise how data is distributed in a dataset. This makes Ternary Graphs useful in the fields of physical science, such as in geology, physical chemistry, petrology, mineralogy, and metallurgy. Then after when you plot any data points, you’ll see from their positioning on the graph what category the data points fit into. Another use is for classification, which is done by breaking up areas of the graph into different categories like in the examples below: One of them is to find correlations between three variables. There are a few different uses for Ternary Graphs.

To understand how to read and draw Ternary Graphs, I would recommend you watch these two videos if you’re not familiar with this type of graph: Ternary Graphs visualise the ratios between the three variables, by simply positioning a dot in accordance with its position on each of the three axes (using barycentric coordinates). This triangular-shaped graph is used to plot a dataset with three variables, where the sum of all three adds up to a constant amount. Typically the data is in percentages or in an equivalent decimal form. In this post, I will be exploring the kinds of triangular chart that I’ve come across.Īlso known as a Ternary Plot, Trilinear Graph/Plot, Triangle Graph/Plot, Simplex Plot, De Finetti Diagram, Gibbs Triangle.

It’s been awhile since I’ve done one of these posts (the last one being on Area Graph Variations), so I wanted to get back into looking at different chart types.
